JoyScreen information
What is JoyScreen?
Focus view, extra brightness, ambient glow, and keep awake — all from your menu bar. JoyScreen transforms how you use your Mac.
- Blur distractions. Stay focused.
- Boost brightness. Readable outdoors.
- Add ambient glow. Look great in low light.
- Keep your Mac awake. No interruptions.
Sound familiar?
- Too many distractions: 15 open windows fighting for your attention. Slack, browser tabs, and notifications keep pulling you away.
- Screen too dim outside: Squinting at your MacBook in a café or on a sunny day. Max brightness still isn't enough.
- Look terrible on late-night calls: Dark room, bad lighting, grainy camera. You sound smart but look like a shadow.
- Mac falls asleep at the wrong time: Presenting to clients, downloading a file, watching a tutorial — screen goes black. Again.
Four tools. One menu bar app.
Focus view. Blur the noise. See what matters.
Instantly blur all background windows so you can focus on what's in front of you. No more visual chaos — just you and your work.
- Blurs inactive windows with adjustable intensity
- Spotlight follows your mouse cursor
- Toggle with a single hotkey
